Blood In The Water

[stakes_and_daggers]

The Shark Tank... Usually, just a casino, but flyers had been posted and handed out, all over Vegas, indicating that, for this night, gambling would be optional. That there would be a party for Hallowe'en and a themed costume contest to match. Good for publicity and, not to mention, the bar - especially with no entrance fee!

Downstairs was the gambling section. Upstairs being where the main party was being held. Only the two floors existed and it made for a nice, self-contained atmosphere.

No actual vampires or other denizens of the night, of course. At least, for the most part. They tended to find nights like this a little offensive.

Something else which would be changing later...

[OOC: Open to everyone! Make yourselves at home and things will take a change for the violent in a little while. :)]

"Thank you. A new friend gave it to me."

Did Cian count as a friend? Yes, his advice about the wards and telling her to get in touch with the Wolf rather than run away from it was helpful, but Echo wasn't sure if it could be called a friendship yet. She did appreciate that he wasn't likely to tease or make fun of her.

"I almost couldn't find a place to park," she told the other brunette, gesturing vaguely in the direction of the parking lot outside. "At least they didn't have valet service, though. Fifteen bucks to let someone else park for me? No thanks."

"Hang on a sec... what can I get you?" she directed at a couple who approached at Echo's right hand. Rhiannon poured a Budweiser and mixed a gin and tonic. She placed the drinks on a pair of Shark Tank napkins and accepted the cash with tip. "Here you go."

She ran a wet rag over a splash on her workspace.

Returning to the customer, she said, "I'm just getting the hang of where to park around here. There are a couple of garages that are cheap, if you're willing to hike a few blocks."

"That's what I did, walked a few blocks. Some old lady stopped me on the street and asked and asked if I could have the car that was blocking her in towed away. She was so near-sighted that she thought I was wearing some kind of uniform. I don't think she should have been behind the wheel of a car."

Another party goer in a very well-done devil costume bumped into Echo on her left side, and she moved so he wouldn't poke her with his pitchfork. "So you must have just moved to Vegas?" she asked the bartender as she took a casual drink of her Guinness. "I'm still getting used to the desert myself."
